To do your will, O my God, is my delight,and your law is within my heart!" ~ psalm 40.

I am starting over. After several years of being depressed and letting my mind beat me up with "what might have been". I am starting over.

I am facing a future that is uncertain, and a past that I do not know how to interpret, but I am starting over.

In order to accomplish this I have been forcing myself to think of other things, mostly scripture and how I can serve my parish. I am attending mass more often, and adoration as often as possible. I am trying to get out more and think about what other people need and how I might meet those needs. It is a much happier way to live. I have tried withdrawing and being off by myself and escaping life as much as possible but that was just not doing a thing for me.

I am also studying scripture more. I recently acquired the first two books in Carroll's The History of Christendom series. Highly recommended by a well-regarded Catholic Theologian that i know. I am re-reading the first book slowly and with much thought (The Founding of Christendom) in conjunction with Bright's A History of Israel. I always wanted to know more about the Bible and get more in depth with it.

About Me

I am about as eclectic as they get. I Have a degree in Interior Design and Teach Design, part time at a Junior College. I am going to college myself, to get a Master's in Counseling, which I believe was really my first calling. I am Catholic and Charismatic, and have a very high value on fidelity to the Pope and to Ecumenism.
Love cats, lots of kinds of music, and most people believe me to be much younger than my birth certificate says i am, including me.
